but just that obama, president obama decided not to do the politically expedient thing, i'm so -- if you're right, if your source is right, because the left really hates larry. and for the president to do that, it's like i'm doing what i think is right and i don't care what you think, because the people that think that larry was the deregulatory guy, mr. cdo and all that stuff. this is a bold move, and i like it. >> well, let me just make clear, my source, and i talked to a couple yesterday who expect larry to be named by president obama, don't know that. they're reading the tea leaves. >> oh. >> we talked about this before. >> uh-oh. >> they, the number of people who actually know what the president's going to do and when he's going to do it is pretty small, but there's a wider circle of people who are in touch with some of those people and who draw some conclusions. so, that's the basis for this. one source predicted that this would happen in october. the other said within a couple of weeks. this has gone on for a long time. it's been an unusually high-profile round of speculation.
